Owners of Limerick shop are blooming with pride after receiving award
THE PROPRIETORS of a flower shop in the city centre are blooming with pride this week after winning an award.
Limerick City Tidy Towns volunteers have given their third award for 2023 to The Flower Studio located in Cecil Street.
Maura O'Neill of the volunteer group said: “The Tidy Towns team love this beautifully-kept family-run florist shop, which this year celebrates its 60th anniversary.”
She acknowledged the business owners Roisin and Niall Lawler have faced disruption over the past two years with the building of the International Rugby Experience, but have still kept their premises clean.
“The Flower Studio has continued to maintain its high standards with clean traditional hand-painted signage and attractive foliage outside the front of the shop, which is beautifully lit at night. It is a credit to the owners and a great asset to this part of the city,” added Maura.
One of Limerick's longest-established florists, The Flower Studio first opened in 1963.
It becomes Limerick City Tidy Town’s third winner of 2023, since they switched to bi-monthly awards this year,
It will be in with a chance to be the overall winner for 2023 at next year’s annual event, along with the January-February winner Dolans, and March-April winner Rift Café.
If you wish to volunteer with Limerick City Tidy Towns, they meet every Sunday morning at 11am at the corner of Thomas Street and O’Connell Street, and on Wednesday evenings throughout the summer at 6pm outside the White House in O'Connell Street/Glentworth Street.
